The University Graduate School is keen to encourage PGR-led peer development and engagement. All PGRs are invited to apply to the PG-led Activities Fund.
PGRs can apply for PGR-led activity funding to support PGR community events taking place before the end of July 2025. Your event should be centred around PGRs. We welcome applications from across the PGR community, however, we strongly encourage applications from and for underrepresented groups, such as neurodiverse students, and parents and carers.
The main purpose of the fund is to enable PGR students to gain transferable skills and experience in planning, organising and implementing engagement activities. Proposed activities can include academic seminars as well as social events.
To apply, please complete the online application form.
If you would like to discuss your ideas before submitting the application form, please contact the Community Engagement Team on graduateschool@contacts.bham.ac.uk
If you have any suggestions for events or workshops for postgraduate students, please feel free to email graduateschool@contacts.bham.ac.uk and make sure you check our events calendar regularly.
